with a 50 shot, the GTP's get me by about a half a car length maybe a little more. i get si's and gsr's by about 1 length. the taurus and i ran even. the sohc civics are no comp. most of them were spraying dry 50 shots. all these races were me running on my 18's too. with the 75 shot and drag radials, i pull on the gtp. i have yet to race the taurus with the 75 shot. i raced my friends gsr this past saturday with stock wheels and beat him pretty good. i haven't raced a lexus.

what can you say about NO2 by ZEX? They say it's good because of it's intelligent feature. Not too rich not too Lean. And you don't need to adjust the timing of your car

Be careful with the NOS. You should probably only be using 60 shot at most for your civic engine. And you should try to use it conservatively. You shouldn't go through more than 2 bottles a year. And that's with the basic dry system. Wet and multi stage should only be used if you have had your engine worked on(bottom/top end). Remember, it's added horsepower and added heat that your engine wouldn't normally have. So it will lessen the life time of your car's engine. Just my two cents.

i have an intake and exhaust... no header yet. very soon though. i haven't had any problems with the car except for the clutch slipping. i do run the 75 shot consistantly. the 50 shot just doesn't do it for me anymore.

nice hood. i want one.
